Age-Dependent Neurofibrillary Tangle Formation, Neuron Loss, and Memory Impairment in a Mouse Model of Human Tauopathy (P301L)
Here, we describe the generation of a novel transgenic mouse model of human tauopathy. The rTg(tau P301L )4510 mouse expresses the P301L mutation in tau (4R0N) associated with f...
Mendelian randomization studies: a review of the approaches used and the quality of reporting
Most MR studies either use the genotype as a proxy for exposure without further estimation or perform an IV analysis. The discussion of underlying assumptions and reporting of s...
Functional anatomy of human procedural learning determined with regional cerebral blood flow and PET
The functional anatomy of motor skill acquisition was investigated in six normal human subjects who learned to perform a pursuit rotor task with their dominant right hand during...
Interleukin 6 Is Required for the Development of Collagen-induced Arthritis
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is overproduced in the joints of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and, based on its multiple stimulatory effects on cells of the immune system and on...
A new murine monoclonal antibody reports an activation-dependent change in the conformation and/or microenvironment of the platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa complex.
Considerable evidence indicates that the glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa complex on human platelets functions as a receptor for fibrinogen, but little is known about the mechanism of...
An evaluation of incremental fit indices: A clarification of mathematical and empirical properties.
This study attempts to measure the quantitative contribution of major chemical fractions of the whole bovine cornea to ultraviolet (UV) absorption between 240 and 300 nm, with s...
Assemblathon 1: A competitive assessment of de novo short read assembly methods
Low-cost short read sequencing technology has revolutionized genomics, though it is only just becoming practical for the high-quality de novo assembly of a novel large genome. W...
Macroevolutionary Dynamics and Historical Biogeography of Primate Diversification Inferred from a Species Supermatrix
Phylogenetic relationships, divergence times, and patterns of biogeographic descent among primate species are both complex and contentious. Here, we generate a robust molecular ...
Social Structure in a Group of Scientists: A Test of the "Invisible College" Hypothesis
The existence of social organization within a research area may be inferred (a) if scientists who have published in the area have more social ties with one another than with sci...
